## Description

Product description               This highly acclaimed OPPO upconverting DVD player was rated #1 in 2005 DVD Player Benchmark Review by Secrets Of Home Theater And High Fidelity magazine using a proven test procedure involving 22 individually measured criteria. The forte of the Oppo OPDV971H is support for the latest HD display devices using DVI or HDMI connection. Utilizing the same Faroudja DCDi de-interlacer that powers much more expensive, custom-installer grade DVD players and scalers, the OPDV971H produces the highest quality upconverted images in 480P, 576P (PAL), 720P, and 1080i resolutions. The Mediatek decoder chip is utilized to its fullest potential, offering extremely fast menu navigation and a seamless layer change. This unique implementation of Mediatek decoder and Faroudja deinterlacer offers exceptional video performance with super fast responsiveness. Video: The built-in, top-of-the-line FLI2310 Faroudja DCDiTM analyzes video on a single-pixel granularity to detect angled lines and edges and select optimal filtering to eliminate motion artifacts. With video-based material, the FLI2310 removes coloration artifacts produced by conventional video decoders. The OPPO OPDV-971H features DVI connection to HDTV/ Projector/ Plasma displays and monitors that support HDMI or DVI connectors. Audio: Full Dolby Digital and DTSTM decoders are built in with full DSP menu and setup controls. In summary, the Oppo's intelligent design, impressive performance, reliability, and relentless effort to provide personalized customer support have sold this DVD player to thousands of customers. If you have recently purchased a LCD or Plasmas TV or DLP projector with DVI or HDMI output, or are considering one, you should test drive this OPPO player. What’s in the box: This player comes in a sliver chassis. A remote control with easy to navigate buttons. Remote batteries (2 AA), 5-feet DVI and audio/vieo cables, and a user manual.                  .com               Improve the picture quality of DVD movies shown on your high-definition television with the versatile OPPO Digital OPDV971H DVD player, which provides 480p/540p/576p/720p/1080i resolutions and can upconvert 480i video from DVDs to the high definition 720p/1080i formats. Featuring a slim and elegant design, it featurs a sleek, silver design that will fit in nicely the rest of your home theater's components. In addition to standard DVD move and CD audio discs, it's also compatible with DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, (S)VCD, HDCD, and CD-R/RW discs as well as WMA and JPEG digital content. It also plays DivX 5, DivX 4, DivX 3, and DivX VOD video content (in compliance with DivX Certified technical requirements).  The OPDV971H features Faroudja's Emmy award-winning DCDi deinterlacing and scaling technology to up-convert standard video in DVDs to HD resolutions. DCDi (Directional Correlational Deinterlacing) technology eliminates the jagginess that conventional upconverters introduced to diagonal edges in video. FaroudjaÕs unique DCDi algorithm identifies all the moving edges in a scene and adjusts the angle of interpolation at each pixel so that the interpolation always follows the edge instead of crossing it, eliminating staircasing or jagged edge artifacts.  Other features include a 108MHz/12bit video D/A converter, super error correction with twin laser and intelligent laser wavelength control, NTSC/PAL output (from both NTSC and PAL formatted discs), multi-angled view capability, virtual surround sound, and built-in Dolby Digital and DTS decoders. Future upgrades to the firmware can be updated to the player via a CD-ROM disc. It offers the following connection options: DVI Out: 1 (480p, 576p, 540p, 720p, 1080i resolutions) S-Video Out: 1 Composite AV Out: 1 Component Out Subwoofer Out: 1 Optical digital audio Out: 1 Coaxial digital audio Out: 1 Tech Talk DivX is a video codec (a piece of software encoding and decoding video) based on the MPEG-4 compression format, that blends good quality video with a low bitrate. This translates to a smaller file size (around 15 percent of a standard DVD's video file), making it easier to transfer to portable devices as well as quicker to create (encode). HDCD (High Definition Compatible Digital) is a disc encoding format for audio CDs and DVDs. It can encode 20 bits of audio information into a conventional CD 16-bit channel, yielding a greater dynamic range and a more true-to-life sound when decoded. HDCD-equipped players will improve audio quality for even traditionally recorded CDs and DVDs. Conversely, because of the recording process, HDCD-encoded media will also sound better than traditionally CDs and DVDs on players that don't have the HDCD chip. DVI (Digital Video Interface) provides an uncompressed transfer of high definition video from a digital video source to a digital display device. HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) ensures copy protection of the content. The DVI output is also essential if you want to watch copyrighted DVDÕs at a higher, upconverted resolution (other video connections do not provide upconversion). What's in the Box DVD player, remote control (with batteries), video cable, RCA L/R audio cable, printed operating instructions

    Near perfect right out of the box
  

*by T***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2006*

I was kind of reluctant to get this DVD player at first. I've never heard of this company and thought that it'd be a cheap piece of junk, despite the higher than normal price tag.Got it home and was actually surprised as how well it was packaged. They really took care in doing so. The build quality is very high in my opinion. Sure, you can complain about the flimsy tray, but don't all super slim DVD players have trays like that? It doesn't bother me much.The people who designed this are geniuses. I never could have imagined how useful an eject button with a BLUE LIGHT on it could be! Seriously, you'd be surprised how many times i've accidently pressed the wrong button to eject a disc late at night. The only negative is that the LED display is nearly unviewable from a distance if you have it down low in a stand. No big deal. It's only because of the slim design.The remote is not average, but GOOD. To me it doesn't feel cheap at all. My only complaint is that I don't like the placement of the fast forward/back buttons. If they gave you an alternative so that the back/forward arrow keys in the center of the remote could be used for this, it would be a PERFECT remote.I have this connected to a 1080p LCD and just set it at 1080i. The picture qualith is AMAZING. To show off what this could do, just check out the latest Star Wars movie. The sound quality is fine too, but I won't really comment on that since I live in an apartment and don't turn up the volume too loud.One minor thing is that once or twice during a movie with subtitles they will have a little glitch, where a line will stretch across the subtitles.  Please note that this is extremely rare and if it does happen it only occurs on one or two lines of text the entire movie! Perhaps they fixed this. It's such a minor problem it's not worth mentioning. And BTW the screensaver is terrible. When the logo disappear it leaves green patterns all over the screen on my TV. At least it doesn't automatically power down like some other DVD players. That's the most annoying thing EVER!Also, worth pointing out is that this is connected up to my TV full time while my HD-DVD player is collecting dust.Instead of reviewing this within days of getting it, i've played around with it for weeks to be absolutely sure it's good. So far I can't come up with many bad things about it. This is coming from a person who probably buys 3 DVD players a year! Get this player, it's worth the money and I highly recommend it!

    oppo dvi upconvertion
  

*by E***Z on Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2005*

I just got this player thru Amazon, and ran two region1 DVD disks:  LOTR Return of the King Platinum and Dying Young.  The short review:  The wife is so impressed with the Oppo's picture quality (that's probably the most important consideration when buying anything like this).  I was expecting the quality, since I was able to demo a Samsung earlier that could do DCDI/Faroudja/upconvertion.  ADDED:  I also tried Star Wars DVD. WOW!!  The picture quality really blew me away.  I can see details in the movie I have never seen before on a TV.Our Oppo/HT setup:  Panasonic AE700 widescreen lcd projector hdmi, ht=61" x wd=108" diy "blackout" screen (viewing distance=3.5meters),  Yamaha RXV2095 receiver, Pioneer DV515 (old non-progressive dvd player via 12meter sVideo, 1.5meter fiber optic audio), Oppo DV971H (via dvi-to-hdmi adapter, 5meter hdmi cable, 3.7meter 75ohm component video cable, 10meter 75ohm coax audio),  Speakers:  Wharfedale Diamond 8.4 L/R/C and Bose AM10 L/R/C/Surr, Wiring AWG12. Home Theater PC setup (6meter VGA output, 1.5 meter fiber optic audio, Asus Pentium 4-2.67GHz notebook, ATI Radeon 9000-64MB, 512MB, 40GB HDD, ZoomPlayer, FFDShow, PowerStrip, WinDVD6, PowerDVD6).  (1meter = 3.28ft)I have observed a significant video improvement over our old pioneer DVD player.  I also tried a 1970's movie (I won't mention the title) that was so poorly transferred to DVD (region3), and I noticed a significant improvement in the video playback over the old player.  The noise artifacts were minimized, and the sharpness had a significant improvement.  I guess that was the DCDI/Faroudja chip doing its work.I've tried the 480p,720p,1080i upconvertion using the "dvi" button on the remote and although I couldn't really notice the difference in quality between the three modes even on such a large screen, the lcd projector saw the difference and reported the corresponding "input source signal".  I may have to observe some more and change the projector's picture mode, we usually leave it at "Cinema1 mode".ADDED:  okay, I've now looked A LOT closer using Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon region3 DVD.  Basically, as I move up the DVI resolution from 480p to 720p to 1080i, I did noticed that less and less horizontal lines were becoming visible (a good thing).BUT, since our projector uses hdmi, the picture does suffer from hdmi cropping issues (varies with the resolution being used).  Using component/analog gives the largest picture that can occupy the screen (unfortunately there is no upconversion using component, only the Oppo's DVI output has the upconversion).  At the projector side:  Using hdmi input, the picture appears cropped (black bars at the left and right, sometimes at the top and bottom, sometimes a combination of both).  I also cannot change aspect ratio using hdmi, while you can using component/analog inputs of the projector.ADDED:  The Oppo I have can play DVD-Audio, something not stated in the manuals or the unit's array of logos.  The DVD-Audio sampler disc I used came from Creative Lab's Audigy 2 for the PC.ADDED:  I also compaired the Oppo's component output vs. the dvi-to-hdmi output, basically, there's a big difference in the picture quality, you should connect using the dvi output if possible.I also noticed that the subtitles on the movies are much easier to read now when compaired to the old dvd player, but on one brief moment the subtitles on Dying Young were garbled -that's never happened before on the Pioneer.ADDED: Okay, this has now happened to a bunch of other DVDs, sometimes it garbles one single line of subtitle per entire single dvd I watched.  That is still an acceptable problem to me.I also heard no apparent difference in audio quality between the Oppo and the old Pioneer despite the length of the coax. Naturally I set all audio sound effects to off when compairing audio CDs.I also compaired the Oppo to our HTPC.  Basically, the HTPC could output better video than the old Pioneer, but when compairing with Oppo, I prefer the Oppo.  I don't want the hassle the HTPC is giving me.  I saw no significant video quality difference between the HTPC and the Oppo.  So my take on this is if you're happy with your HTPC, stick to it.  If you want convenience then Oppo is something to look at.  If you can't demo an Oppo, try looking at anything with DCDI/Faroudja.Bottom line:  I am happy with the purchase.  Good value for the money.  It's region free and can upconvert, and that's what's important to me.  I chose Oppo vs. Momitsu V880 because I prefer Faroudja over Sigma Designs.  BUT, BUT, here are my Oppo gripes....1. I don't like the remote's key layout, it also seems flimsy, it could use a backlight.2. I don't like the el-cheapo plastic disc tray.  It looks like it will break easily.  It's weird having to insert a disc if the tray doesn't comeout 100% all the way.  I just hope this is the design, not a defect.3. I don't like the bright blue light which is distracting in a completely dark home theater room.4. The player's buttons are a little hard to press, well, maybe because it's still new.  As with other players, not all remote functions can be found on the unit itself.  So take care of the remote.5. I wish the unit was color black instead of silver.6. I don't like the OSD font, could use a better readable font.7. The setup menu could be more descriptive, the manual helps but not enough...8. I wish it was HDMI rather than DVI, but the adapter solved that issue.ADDED: 9. Subtitle display is sometimes garbled (sometimes happens once on a single line per DVD watched).ADDED 05/28:  Okay, after 3 months and almost 200 hrs of use, I am still happy with this purchase. However, not all DVD titles appeared fantastic thru the DVI upconversion output (hdmi input on our projector), such as Top Gun r1.  I had to watch it thru the component output.  It appeared too visually noisy via DVI.Eric GutierrezManila, Philippines

    no tint control; video controls didn't work.
  

*by P***D on Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2007*

I bought this when my 10-year old JVC player crapped out, and thought I could get one that would last another 10 and get me into the HDTV era.  I returned it because the video controls didn't work (brightness / saturation / contrast).  There is also no control for tint(red/green) either, something my JVC had. I am baffled by that.It's possible I didn't have video in the right mode for the controls to work but it wasn't evident in the manual, which in my opinion wasn't formatted very well (the remote display probably had a #6 font for the button labels - not for us old guys, and you have to page back to the remote display and guess what the instructions are talking about).But the fact that there is no tint control was enough for me to return it.
